I really enjoyed making this quilt; not only because I got to use a fabric cutter to cut out all of the triangles but also for the fabric play. It's messy business pulling fabric from stash, auditioning, arranging and re-arranging the fabrics of choice, and then of course changing my mind, but it is definitely one of my favorite parts of quilt making.
Fabrics used include:
- Organic Marine by Dan Stiles for Birch Organic
- Circa 60 by Monaluna for Birch Organic Fabric
- Anika ~ Geo Dots by Monaluna
- Flea Market Fancy and Katie Jumpe Rope by Denyse Schmidt
- Heath in Steel Gray by Alexander Henry
- Stripes in Orange - From Little Things by Sarah Fielke
And for the back of the quilt I have used another print from Organic Marine by Dan Stiles for Birch. These high quality organic fabrics have truly been a pleasure to work with and combine together as a fun collection of marine prints to make a great little boy (or girl!) quilt.
For binding fabric I have chosen a blue and white pin stripe (by A Day in the Country ~ available locally in a great range of colors from GJ Discount Fabrics). It perfectly matches the other blues used in the quilt and adds the perfect edge/frame to this nautical themed quilt.
The finished quilt measures 40.5 inches x 50 inches
